6 Steps to a Straighter Smile

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Plan

Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation, where we evaluate your dental health using X-rays and a thorough examination. Based on your unique needs, we’ll recommend the most effective orthodontic treatment—whether it’s braces or Invisalign—and provide a clear timeline for your transformation.

Step 2: Treatment Begins

If you opt for braces, we will carefully apply them to begin your realignment process.
If you choose Invisalign, you will receive your first set of clear aligners, custom-made for your teeth.
Treatment duration varies between 8 to 48 months, depending on the complexity of your case.

Step 3: Regular Check-Ups

We schedule routine check-ups to monitor progress and make adjustments.
✔ Braces: Tightening wires for proper alignment.
✔ Invisalign: New aligners every few weeks.
✔ Progress: Tracking improvements and fine-tuning as needed.

Step 4: Living With Invisalign or Braces

Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is crucial during orthodontic treatment. We provide detailed guidance on how to care for your teeth and appliances, including eating recommendations, cleaning tips, and managing any discomfort to ensure a smooth experience.

Step 5: Removal of Invisalign or Braces

Once your teeth have reached their final, optimal positions:
✔ Braces will be removed using a painless, quick procedure.
✔ Invisalign treatment will conclude, and you’ll be ready to showcase your transformed smile!

Step 6: Recovery & Aftercare

To keep your new smile in place, retainers are typically required to prevent teeth from shifting back. At your final visit, we’ll ensure your teeth are clean, adhesive-free, and well-aligned, setting you up for a lifetime of confidence.
